Potty Training!
Speaking of frustration, yep, potty training is also one of those bonuses that can be very frustrating. Emily has shown all of the signs of being ready to be potty trained except for the biggest on of all, desire. So, I thought that I would help her with her desire by adding some perks. (Also known as bribes.) It honestly took a little bit of everything I could think of. Treats, money, presents, and praise. I have to say though that giving her little presents worked great. I went and bought a 101 piece play food set and gave her a piece of play food every time she went. This was huge for her because she has had a kitchen set since Christmas without any play food. It was definitely something worth working for.

she is such a cutie! I don't see a thing wrong with bribing kids. We have Joey a quarter every time she went in the potty and took one away every time she messed her pants. it didn't take long for her to get it.
She looks so cute with the Chef hat on! I love this potty training idea!
I want some of that soup!
Good luck! Potty training is about the hardest thing on this planet! okay so I might have exagerated just a little, but you know. I love the fake food idea. Emily seems to enjoy that! :)
